But of all who gave themselves up to these chronological studies the man who exerted the most powerful influ ence upon the dominant nations of Chrfstcn-l >::: wn-i Archbishop Usher. In 1 >SO he p tblishe ' ais “Annals of the Ancie.it and New Testaments,” nnd it at once Ixv-.uu-.* the greatest authority for all English speaking peoples. Usher was a man of deep and wide theologi cal learning, powerful in controversy; and his careful conclusion, after years of the most profound study of the He brew Scriptures, was that man was ere ated 4,004 years before the Christian era. His verdict was widely received as final; his dates were incerted in the margins of the authorized version of the English Bible and were soon prac ; tically regarded as equally inspired with the sacred text itself. To ques tion them seriously was to risk prefer ment in the church and reputation in the world at large. The same adhesion to tlig Hebrew Scriptures which had influenced Usher, brought leading men of the older church I to the same view; men who would have burned each other at the stake for their differences on other points, agreed to this: Melanchthon and Tostatus, Light foot and Jansen, Salmeron and Sealiger, Petavius and Kepler, inquisitors and reformers, Jesuits and Jansenists, priests and rabbis, stood together in the belief that the creation of man was proved by Scripture to have taken place between 3900 and 4001 years be fore Christ. —Andrew D. White in Pop ular Science Monthly. The Cost of Newspapers. From a suggestive article on news papers, by Eugene M. Camp, in The Century, we quote as follows: ‘’What is the total annual cost < f the whole sale purchasers of news—namely, the publishers —of the entire news product of the United States! An answer to this question would be of interest, but it has never been answered. For sev eral years I have been gathering infor mation upon wltich to base an estimate. Publishers have aniformly extended me every courtesy; nevertheless I find it an exceedingly difficult quantity to arrive at, and for my figures I <* not claim absolute accuracy. Publishers in this country annually expend something near the following sums for news: For press dispatches Ji,820,000 For special dispatches 2,250,000 For local news 12.500,000 $16,570,000 “The business of the Associated Press, a mutual concern which pays nothing for its news, and which serves its patrons at approximate oost, amounts to $1,250,000 per aim mu; and that of the United Press, a stock cor poration, is $450,000 per annum. The former aims to provide news about all important events, hi which work $120,- 000 in telegraph tolls is expended; while the latter endeavors, above all else, to provide accounts of events oc curring in the vicinity of the respective papers served.” The Most Costly Bean. The vanilla bean is the costliest bean that ever grew. It flourishes in Mexi co, chiefly in the states of Papantla and Misantly. It grows wild, and is gathered and marketed by the natives, who sell them just as they come from i the forest at from $lO to sl2 per 100 pounds. After drying and curing them, the dealers sell at about $lO per pound; one-hundredth part of that sum is all the poor savages get for gathering them. They are used by druggists and confectioners and are reckoned among the important articles of commerce.— I St. Louis Republic. Sub-Divided Affections. Helen —Here, Jack, is a red rose for s you. That means my best love, you I know. Jack—You darling! Do 1 get that flower in your other hand, too? Helen—No. That’s for Tom, my other adorer. It is myrtle, and means constancy and fidelity.—Pittsburg Bul letin. Throughout the most elegant periods of the “age of chivalry” handkerchiefs, j or any substitute for them other than 1 such as nature provided, were utterly unknown. Elaborate books of eti quette and treatises upon manners were written long before either handker chiefs or table forks were thought of.

It would seem that romantic lovers ue still to be found on the banks of the iiooghly. In a village called Tan gall another case of “Villikins and Hi; Dinah” was enacted a few days ago.

Suggestions fw a Marine Barometer. A suggestion for bettering weather I predictions lias been made by ('apt. i Franklin Fox, a well known English seaman. During January, 1890, when terrific gales burst upon the British islands, he finds that barometers at London gave no reliable monitions of these disastrous cyclones. His own idea is that the atmospheric power of rising or depressing the mercury in a barometer is affected by the amount of ■ electricity in the air at the moment, I and that “to have strict, reliable weather glasses we require electric tests of the conditions of the atmosphere attached to them.” It may be true, as Capt. Fox has sup posed, that electricity has an effect on the oscillations of the mercury in the glass. During the passage of an elec tric storm over a station the mercury, for reasons never fully explained, al most Invariably rises or falls very rap idly, though it often returns to its pre vious level when the storm is past. There is little doubt that the electrical state of clouds, as Lord Rayleigh has shown, determines their precipitation, and the down rush of rain, always ac companied by a down rush of air, will tend to sustain or elevate the mercury —an effect likely to be intensified when the descending air is filled with the smoke and dust arising over a great city. When, therefore, a great storm is ap proaching, and clouds In its front are in that electrical condition which fa vors heavy and prolonged precipita tion from them, the effect may very naturally account for the barometric phenomenon noted by Capt. Fox. At all events, the series of experiments which he proposes could not fail to throw new and valuable light upon the degree of reliance to be placed upon the weather glass. If the invention of a reliable marine barometer should be the result of such experiments it would be the means of saving thousands of lives and ships from the ocean cyclone. —New Orleans Picayune. A Generous Farmer. Rev. Smith Baker, of Lowell, Mass., ■ formerly of Maine, while in Saco told of an experience he once had while holding a pastorate near Bangor. There was a well to do farmer who lived on the opposite bank of the Penobscot from Mr. Baker's residence who one spring, whenthe ice on the river was breaking up, lost a daughter. Mr. j Baker was asked to officiate at the fu neral, which he did, being obliged to hire a horse and carriage to make the journey, the nearest bridge being some distance up the river. Nothing was said about paying him Cither for his services or his expensea A little while afterward another death occurred in the family. Mr. Baker was again asked to conduct the services, which he did, this time hiring a man to row him across the river, and again with no mention of compensation. The next spring the farmer's mother passed away. Mr. Baker was obliged to make the journey as he did the first time by carriage. This time the farmer went to Mr. Bakerand said: “Mr. Baker, you have been very kind to come over here to conduct these funerals at at such an expense to you, and I feel that it is asking altogether too much. I want to pay you something. So next fall, when the apples are ripe, you drive around and you can help yourself from my orchard.”—Lewiston Journal. He Didn’t Tell His Parents. “I have never been so happy before in all my life,” said Henry Soulen, the father of a 15-year-old boy who fell from a fifth story window in the New Insurance building, and was saved from a horrible death by alighting upon a mass of telegraph wires. Mr. Soulen was talking about his son’s escape, and. although two days had elapsed, his voice trembled with emotion. “1 have just been over to the scene of the acci dent,” he stated, “and consider that my boy’s escape was simply wonderful. The wires upon which he fell are not more than a dozen in number. ” It ap pears that young Soulen did not tell liis parents of his frightful experience. “John reached home Saturday even Ing,” said Iris father, “ate his supper, and acted as if nothing had hap pened. Ho thought he might as well keep quiet so long as he had not been hint. In the evening my son Herman, who had read about the affair while down town, rushed into the house, grabbed John in his arms and thanked God that he was still alive. Then wf heard for the first time of John's fear ful experience. ” —Milwaukee Wisconsin Seventy-three Roach on 111 m Coffin. A pretty little episode in the life ol the late Dr. Byford was revealed at his funeral. The noted doctor had many devoted friends, and among them were Dr. and Mrs. Henrotin. The latter has for a number of years been in the habit of sending Dr. Byford a white rose on his birthday. She carried the rose to liim on the last anniversary, and he then said to her: “You must bring seventy-tliroe roses next year, for 1 shall be that many years old.” The doctor died before his seventy-third birthday arrived, but Mrs. Henrotin at tended the funeral and brought the seventy-throe white roses which were laid on his casket. —Chicago Herald. Embroidered handkerchiefs had come ; Into use in Shakespeare’s time, as is proved by the important part which Desdemona's handkerchief —or “nap- ■ kin,” as it is called —[days hi the trago ■dy of “Othoki." But as yet the pos ' lessors of handkerchiefs were lords and ladies. Even in the Seventeenth cen tury the common people knew no such luxury. A Tender Chord. Rev.
